Beijing rules : how China weaponized its economy to confront the world / Bethany Allen. by Allen, Bethany. HarperCollins Publishers, 2023. Call #: 337.51 A425b Subjects Geopolitics.   Capitalism -- Political aspects.   China -- Economic policy -- 1949-   China -- Foreign economic relations.   China -- Foreign relations. ISBN:  9780063057418 (hc.) Alternate title:  How China weaponized its economy to confront the world Edition:  1st ed. Description:  xxix, 305 p. ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (pages 245-288) and index. Summary:  "'Beijing Rules' is a superb expose which reveals how China learned to master capitalism which it now wields in its own authoritarian form to achieve global dominance. As Bethany Allen, the China reporter for Axios, reveals, the long-standing belief that free-trade capitalism is a democratizing force -- the assumption underlying much of American and Western policy since World War II - -is demonstrably false. Capitalism is actually a two-way street: if democratic values can travel in one direction, authoritarianism can travel in the other. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has successfully engineered what Cold War champions believed to be impossible: an unabashedly Communist Party leading a prosperous capitalist state. Written by the first American journalist to expose covert Chinese influence operations in the United States, Beijing Rules includes headline-making stories of western institutions bowing to Beijing's coercion -- a glimpse of what American's future might look like should liberal democracy come firmly under the thumb of authoritarian capitalism. Grounded in deep investigative reporting, it sounds the alarm about what we must do to prevent the loss of freedoms we now take for granted. Bethany Allen is the China reporter at Axios. She previously worked as the lead reporter for the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists' China Cables project, as a national security correspondent for the Daily Beast, and as a reporter and editor at Foreign Policy magazine. In 2020 she received the Robert D. G. Lewis Watchdog Award and was a finalist for the Batten Medal for Courage in Journalism. A fluent Mandarin speaker, she previously lived China for four years. She now lives in Taipei.
